Nurse Shares Intimate Experiences with Death in Debut Memoir

A registered nurse who spent much of her four-decade career working in emergency, critical care and hospice environments has published a memoir about her encounters with loved ones and patients in their final days and the spiritual growth she experienced after her own near-death experience.

In "No More Fear," author Karen T. Stratoti presents a stirring examination of the meaning of life, the beauty of death and the purpose of both in connecting people to God's unique purpose for them. Inspired by an out-of-body experience she had at age 42 after going into anaphylactic shock post-surgery, Stratoti's book reflects on the spiritual meaning of living and dying.

"I was sent back to tell people a message," Stratoti said. "God wants all to know that in His eyes, everyone is precious and our individual value is incalculable. God forgives all sins; He loves us even when we fail to love ourselves."

"Exceptional. I could not put this book down," an Amazon customer wrote in a five-star review of the book. " Karen has helped me deal with the act of dying and grieving and understanding that there is No More Fear. This book has renewed my faith and has given me a different outlook on understanding life."

A gentle resource for those grappling with end-of-life issues, "No More Fear" offers a relatable and easy-to-understand outlet for fostering compassion and fellowship through God in the face of adversity.
